About Rocio

Rocio Lozano-Arciniegas is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, parenting strains, and life changes. She also addresses ADHD, relationship and communication problems, trauma and abuse, attachment concerns, and issues related to immigration. She is licensed in North Carolina and practices in Virginia, and she speaks English and Spanish.

Her style is direct and compassionate. She aims to create a respectful space and meets clients where they are.

Background and approach

Rocio avoids stigmatizing labels and works to tailor care to each person’s situation. In sessions she combines insight with practical strategies. She draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how relationships shape current struggles.

Mindfulness techniques are used to help manage stress and anxiety through present-moment skills. Psychodynamic themes are explored when early patterns seem to influence current behavior. Rocio brings 14 years of experience, including long-term work with migrant communities and years in independent practice.

That background shapes her awareness of immigration-related concerns and communication barriers. She adapts plans based on each person’s needs and lived context. She offers several online formats and supports international clients.

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships influence current patterns. It can help when recurring conflicts or trust issues show up in close relationships. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing skills to reduce stress and manage anxious thoughts in the moment. Psychodynamic Therapy explores long-standing patterns and feelings to uncover how past experiences shape present reactions, which can be useful for persistent relationship or self-image issues.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals, needs, and comfort level. That means trying a practical skill, discussing what helps, and adjusting the plan together as understanding grows.

Online therapy gives practical flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules and to continue work from different locations, including international participation. The variety of formats also allows a mix of real-time conversation and shorter check-ins so therapy can match daily life and changing needs.

Attachment-Based Therapy

Looks at how early bonds shaped what you expect from closeness, and how that plays out now with a partner, a parent, or your own children.

Mindfulness Therapy

Attention training: noticing thoughts and physical feelings as they arrive without being carried off by them. Much of it is practice you do yourself, so guidance over video or audio works much as it would in person.

Psychodynamic Therapy

Exploring how earlier relationships and patterns still shape the present, often over a longer stretch of time. It relies on conversation and reflection rather than exercises.
